It's been almost a year since the girls of the pop-music club started jamming together, but the start of the new year is no time to look back on their journey--it's time to recruit new members! Despite their inexperience, the girls' passionate performance at the entrance ceremony impresses first-year Azuka, a budding guitar player who can't wait to join. But she didn't expect there to be so much tea-drinking in the pop-music club. Or cosplaying.......

Four troubled boys, Guiliano, Stefano, Alberto, and Alex, form a band. They practice in a garage that Guilano's dad loaned them. When their amp blows right before the deadline for their demo tape, the boys become desperate to replace it and land themselves in more trouble than they know how to handle.

"Taiyou is a high school musician with dreams of stardom, but when his bandmates quit in order to focus on school, it feels like Taiyou's dreams are slipping away. In an act of desperation, Taiyou strong-arms his sullen classmate Hikari into forming a band with him. The two boys are total opposites, but together they might just be able to create something amazing."--Provided by publisher.
